ABF substrate oversupply emerges
The market for ABF substrates is slightly oversupplied, due mainly to sluggish demand for PC processors and GPUs, according to market sources......»»
Establishing the science of stone walls
New England's landscape is known for many things, such as the brilliant diversity of colorful foliage on display each autumn. It is at this time of the year when another iconic landscape feature re-emerges as the leaves fall—thousands of miles of s.....»»
Daily Telescope: Lucy finds not one but two diamonds in the sky
"The fact that it is two makes it even more exciting." Enlarge / This image shows the “moonrise” of the satellite as it emerges from behind asteroid Dinkinesh as seen by the Lucy Long-Range Reconnaissance Imager. (credit: NA.....»»
Experiments show molecules, not substrates, are mostly responsible for chirality-induced spin selectivity
A team of chemists at Northwestern University, working with a pair of colleagues from Università di Parma, reports that the chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect is caused by the molecules involved, not a substrate, when quantum spin is t.....»»
High-performance SERS substrate proposed based on 2H-TaS2 and single-atom-layer gold clusters
Recently, a research team led by Professor Yang Liangbao from Institute of Health and Medical Technology, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) proposed an electromagnetic field enhancement mechanism based on.....»»
X-rays reveal microstructural fingerprints of 3D-printed alloy
Cornell researchers took a novel approach to explore the way microstructure emerges in a 3D-printed metal alloy: They bombarded it with X-rays while the material was being printed......»»
AI: Voice cloning tech emerges in Sudan civil war
Evidence suggests voice cloning tools were used to impersonate the ex-president of Sudan on TikTok......»»
Climate change emerges as major driver of amphibian declines, new research finds
Amphibians are in trouble and in desperate need of conservation action, according to a new global assessment of the world's amphibian population......»»
HomeKit Weekly: AiDot OREiN emerges as a Matter-focused light bulb vendor for a vendor-neutral smart home
I know some of you aren’t bullish on Matter. Is it perfect? No. Does it need more features to truly become the vendor-neutral smart home specification? Yes. I believe in it, though. I believe in it because every manufacturer wins with Matter. When.....»»
Mechanism of methyltransferase METTL8-mediated mitochondrial RNA m3C modification and its relaxed substrate specificity
A study published in the journal Science Bulletin was led by Profs. Xiao-Long Zhou and En-Duo Wang (CAS Center for Excellence in Molecular Cell Science, Shanghai Institute of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences)......»»
A newly identified virus emerges from the deep
The Mariana Trench, the deepest place on Earth, plunges nearly 11,000 meters at its lowest point on the floor of the Pacific Ocean. Life persists in the deep and cold darkness, and "wherever there's life, you can bet there are regulators at work," sa.....»»
Motion of stars near Milky Way"s central black hole is only predictable for a few hundred years
The orbits of 27 stars orbiting closely around the black hole at the center of our Milky Way are so chaotic that researchers cannot predict with confidence where they will be in about 462 years. This finding emerges from simulations by three astronom.....»»
Crime blotter: Five indicted in California Apple product thefts
In the latest Apple Crime Blotter, video emerges of a woman in China biting iPhone cable, North Carolina businessmen sentenced in fraud, and Sam Bankman-Fried's story is coming to Apple TV+.Apple Store at Grand Arcade in the U.K. The latest in an occ.....»»
RNA modification: Mechanisms and therapeutic targets
RNA modifications are dynamic and reversible chemical modifications on substrate RNA that regulate mRNA stability, translation, and localization. This review is designed by Dr. Junhong Han and written by his postdoctoral researcher Dr. Lei Qiu and P.....»»
A new analytical framework assesses the risk of invasive golden mussels in water diversion projects
Water diversion projects, though meant to correct unequal water distribution, unintentionally promote the growth of invasive aquatic species like the golden mussel. This fast-reproducing, substrate-clinging mussel causes biofouling, damaging structur.....»»
To spread or slide? Scientists uncover how foams spread on surfaces
Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have uncovered the physics behind how foams spread on surfaces. The scientists placed balls of foam on a flat substrate and then scraped across it with a plate. They identified different patterns that st.....»»
Ichnocoenoses reveal dynamic process of turbidity current–induced benthic-marine oxygenation
Trace fossils are fossilized structures produced on or within a substrate by the life processes of ancient organisms, including tracks, trails, burrows, borings, and other structures. Ichnocoenosis, a suite of trace fossils representing the work of a.....»»
Renewable adhesive may offer an effective means of adhesion underwater
The National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) has developed a renewable adhesive that allows for repeated bonding and debonding, and can reset the substrate and adhesive to their original state when needed......»»
A butterfly"s first flight inspires a new way to produce force and electricity
The wings of a butterfly are made of chitin, an organic polymer that is the main component of the shells of arthropods like crustaceans and other insects. As a butterfly emerges from its cocoon in the final stage of metamorphosis, it will slowly unfo.....»»
Researchers achieve water-assisted strong underwater adhesion
As the interfacial water layer hinders the formation of interfacial contacts and intermolecular interactions between the adhesive and the substrate, in almost all cases of underwater adhesion, water molecules typically act as a destroyer, resulting i.....»»
